Free speech is under assault in Brazil (and the rest of the globalist leaders in the world)

from The Gray Area:
9/3/24:
Kamala Harris supports what is being done to X in Brazil. She is taking the government control side of the debate. Governments must control content. What does that sound like? Authoritarians. When we all got together to ban Tik Tok because if its Chinese control, many people said be careful. Other countries will do this on a whim, because these social media companies span country borders. So, if you want to take down a Chinese controlled app for national security reasons, be prepared for others to take down apps for reasons of censorship, content control, and editorial control (otherwise known as misinformation). Rumble has also been taken down in Brazil. Telegram has been taken down in Brazil.... And France.... All for the same reason, they will not let government into the app to secretly spy on people. Is this all happening coincidentally? No, it is a global clampdown on news and information that needs to be  controlled by the state. They are asking for editorial control through a 'back door' in the app, to review, block, and arrest people for what they say. We need to stop spying on social media. We need to stop child trafficking on social media. We need to stop organized riots on social media. We can do this and more the same way the government did with the telephone companies back in the day. The government had to come to the phone company and request access and information, usually with a search warrant or some other kind of evidence of wrong doing that might include a wiretap. That did not impact individuals free speech over the telephone. We can do the same thing here. The only problem is, totalitarian governments want more control. According to Socialist President Lula: Brazil is setting a global example for dealing with Elon Musk, calling his 'free speech' app, a ‘Far-Right Ideology’. Can you see what's happening now? Musk is doubling down with Starlink in Brazil.
